Keep Up the Fight

Proposition 66's loss was a narow one. An 11th hour advertisment blitz did the trick for those opposing the measure. The advertisements were misleading, appealing to the voter's fears, and were funded by the prison guards' union.

The good news is that politicians are taking notice of the massive public support for a change in the three strikes law. There are several proposals to ease the law which may go to the legislature this year. Please contact your representatives and let them know you support needed reform.
